Shutter Exercise - Week 1

F/ : 25.0  Shutter: 0.5 ISO: 100

For this still shot i used a shutter speed of 0.5. I could of improved this photo by moving the subject out of the sunlight and into somewhere shadier as the photo is overexposed, but because it was a set task i had no control over which shutter speed to use but if this were real then i would of increased the shutter speed so there would be less light and would of moved out of the sunlight.

F/: 9.0  Shutter: 1/60 ISO: 100

For this photo of a moving subject, i used a shutter speed of 1/60, The subject was spinning quite slowly which meant that a 1/60th of a second was a fast enough shutter speed to freeze this movement. i needed to use a tripod for this because the shutter was under 1/60th . a fault though is the road cone in the background, it kinda takes your eye away from the subject. This cold easily be fixed by either removing it from the frame or zooming up to the subject cutting out the car as well. You can see some motion blur in the movement of her hand.

F/: 22.0  Shutter: 1.3 ISO:100

For this photo of a moving subject, i used a shutter speed of 1.3. This photo is supposed to be an abstract photo, or motion blur. i love this photo cause the subject almost gets lost in the surroundings and the only real pop of colour is the subjects purple jacket which draws the eye.

F/: 25.0  Shutter: 2.0 ISO:100

For this other moving subject shot i uses a shutter speed of 2.0. my subject spun around on the spot and it turned out like this. I really like this photo cause its an effect that i really like, it makes the subject look ghostly and transparent.  theres also some symmetry, the subject is centred between the 2 tables which almost frames the subject.

F/: 5.6  Shutter: 1/40 ISO100.     


Self Directed time: Light Drawing

 ^  F/3.5  Shutter: 1/4  ISO: 100

For this self directed shot i used a shutter speed of 1/4. i made my room dark
and bunched up my fairy lights then moved my camera randomly. 1/4 is a fast
shutter speed so the lines from the lights are quiet short.

^ F/4.0  Shutter: 1.0  ISO: 100

For this shot i used a shutter of 1.0.  i made my room dark

and bunched up my fairy lights then moved my camera randomly.

I put a large mirror facing the lights to almost double the light so
the picture looked more fuller. 1.0

is a slow shutter speed so the lights look longer and you can capture 

more detail.

^ F/4.0  Shutter: 1/5  ISO:100

For this shot i used a shutter speed of 1/5. This shot is one of my favorites
cause you can see some light in the top left-hand corner and the lights turned
blue, which kinda looks like a galaxy. This was still a slower shutter speed
so the camera was able to capture the lines made.

^ F/4.5  Shutter: 1/5  ISO: 100

Foe this shot i used a shutter speed of 1/5,  i made my room dark

and bunched up my fairy lights then moved my camera in a straight line.

i like this photo cause the lights had a purple hint to them, this was because

i had a little light from the hallway shining in.   This was still a slower shutter speed

so the camera was able to capture the lines made.

< For this panning shot i used a shutter of 1/40. I got the subject to walk fast and i followed her with the camera, taking multipule photos as she walked; this technique focused the subject and blurred out the back ground, like a motion blur. once again the road cone was in the shot which draws attention away from the subject.
